The script was penned by Brad Desch and is described as "a love story between a father and daughter living 25 years apart in New York City. Crowe will take on the role of "a famous novelist and widower struggling with mental illness as he tries to raise his 5-year-old daughter. Seyfried will play the modern-day version of the daughter as she continues to struggle with "the aftermath of her troubled childhood."
